Hey thanks I got everything I need. Except freedb, the thing that obtains CD info doesn't seem to be working... I entered in my email and from there I don't know what to do. Sorry for the newbish question, i haven't been in touch with the audio-head in me for a while. Thanks!

alright so I used to use this program that ripped in FLAC. You all should know it, it`s super popular here. But anyways, i forgot the name of the program and i want to download it again. Another thing is there is a tutorial in hydrogenaudio.org that teaches you how to rip in Flac and what to...

I just bought a D-NE20 from a member here but theres a problem... And the problem is, the volume button just... doesn't work. Neither the volume control on the remote nor the player itself works. It is set at one level, a pretty good listen level actually. But the problem is, there will be...

Is the PA2V3 coming out soon or something? or is this just wishful thinking?

Is there any beef with a HD580 paired with the PA2v2? EDIT: Holy **** it took him like 5 minutes to respond to my email... Thats just ridiculous.

Wow, that really helps. I think that yeah, I'm just gonna go with portable phones. I guess when I'm commuting I don't think I need to carry around $400+ worth of gear. I don't think I'd be paying much attention on the commute either, more like background music. Now that that's cleared...

Hi! I have a hard decision to make. Should I buy an amp or a pair of Portable headphones? I just recently bought a D-NE20 from a member here and I am currently using the HD-580s. The HD-580s basically MUST be amped from what I've heard, so I was thinking about an amp ( Something cheap...

Yeah that helps thanks. But... damn...

I bought mine at a Visions store, which is pretty small compared to Future shop if you know what I mean. Does anyone else think that it's because the Mini is discontinued that they just assumed correctly that my iPod was a year old? I don't think they would have gotten the serial number...

Yeah... Maybe they tracked the date that I purchased my Mini or something... Anyone have any other experience?

Just yesterday I decided to send in my iPod mini after it being broken for over a month. Well I go through the steps and finally I land on this page where it says my iPod Warranty has expired... I falsely marked the date as 14 of July 2006. But it still said it was expired and it asked me to...

I would recommend not getting a cellphone as an MP3 Player. I have a ROKR the one before the SLVR. And I only use it while biking, playing it through the speaker. But when I'm out and about I wouldn't use the headphones, they sound like crap and usually not enough memory. And if you were to get...

Well... My sister's, friend's, six year old sister wanted to see MY cellphone. Ok, why not I though. She plays with it for a sec and hands it back to me. But her tiny little hand's couldn't hold the cellphone correctly (I like to think of it like that, but it's more like her stupidy.) and she...

Rumours suggest that possibly 6 or 8gb nanos are coming soon...

It looks great, I would get it if it was a phone. But as a mp3 player and movie player with only 1gb? If I buy another 1gb which will cost me aroudn 80 CND. I will still only have 2gbs. And 350 dollars too. A little expensive for me with the extra cards I'd have to buy. Is there a monthly...

Sorry for posting this here instead of the headphone thread. The headphone thread has too many topics and ones like these get ignored to often. So on with it. I'm looking for a new portable headphone to replace my PX-200s (see signature.) And I'm really clueless about portable phones, PX...

Thank you very very much russdog. Now, what program can I use to play .flac files? Foobar was it? Or am I just not reading correctly?

Hey, I went to the hydrogenaudio forums and found the tutorial to work EAC with FLAC here: http://www.saunalahti.fi/cse/EAC/ I did everything it said except the 'offset' part. Which my EAC does not have, instead I have 'comment' in place. Well I just moved on considering it wasn't there...

Um yeah, I'm lost, and I don't think I'll be using wavpack. Ok help me through this... I downloaded EAC. And the downloaded the flac.exe from: http://flac.sourceforge.net/download.html And I extracted them using WinRAR to my desktop. Now on my desktop is a folder which I named FLAC...

I'll try the comparing thing. And for now I think I'm gonna back up my CDs to burnt CDs. Thanks for the help.

Ok... now. I have a simple question that will determine what I will use. Space does not matter for me, time does not matter for me. If all I care about is pure sound quality which one? Also, which one is more universal? FLAC or Wavpack? Another question not regarding FLAC vs Wavpack. If...

Oh no, not on my mini. I was just reading some threads about backing up music on a portable hard drive. So I thought about it... good idea, so that's what I'm gonna do in the near future. I plan on a 250gb hard drive. And I don't have very many CDs either, but at age 14, I got many years of...
